I did not allow it. The events I shared are how it happened. The PT appeared to be kind, concerned and said she was taking it easy and not stay long due to such an extreme blood pressure. My husband and I decided before she came today that we should just agree with her and do what feels right when she’s gone. When she’s here, I told her flat that I would rather be crippled with no pain than crippled with tortorrous PT pain and no shoving my knee. She agreed. Then while massaging my knee (she called it soft tissue massage) out of nowhere without warning she applied hard pressure. I told her no to stop, but once again later, she did it again and when I stopped her she then spoke about going to a facility for PT where they can manipulate the knee before it locks up. I told her no one will do that. I have only one place I trust and thst was two years ago and I would need to be sure they are the same.
You are so very kind. Believe me zintrudt everyone here and now that I saw how she snuck those rough moves on me, it won’t happen again. I was totally surprised. She had not been that way before. I wish I knew why the PT people feel they must inflict pain. Just two or three times sunk in and I’m up now at 4:00 still awake from pain testing aches my entire leg. Whatever happens in a few hours with the PA and or my surgeon I will not allow them to do harm. I did not count the staples so hopefully they were kidding around (which is not funny) about 200. It sure looked like that many when changing my bandage. They are small and looked like a running staple stitch very close together. I’ll let you know later. Goodnight sll!
